    Born around 1510 in Gray or Dole, Claude Lullier probably began his career in the Jura by drawing up plans for the fortifications of the town of Dole. He was called to Besançon in 1550, where the Metropolitan Chapter commissioned him to design the rood screen for the cathedral. A protégé of the Granvelle and Bonvalot families, and in particular of François Bonvalot, abbot of Luxeuil, who admired his fine craftsmanship, Claude Lullier's second stay in Besançon saw him commissioned to decorate the fountains in Besançon. Deserving of the highest praise, described as "an excellent image-maker" by the historian Gollut (1535-1595) and "an emulator of Polyclète" by the Chifflet family, Claude Lullier is a Renaissance image-maker who deserves to be rediscovered.
